[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Very frankly we make more than twice the HHI you do and have half the mortgage. I don’t say it to brag. It’s just that I agree it would be tough in your financial situation. A shocking number of families are really relying on grandparents to make it work. [/quote] Yep. We have $530K left on our mortgage and our HHI is $1.1M. We have one kid. Even with two, we’d be fine in large part because we [b]chose to not become house poor[/b] and pushed for lucrative careers. [/quote] Part of this is timing. I’m also not house poor, but I recognize a lot of it is luck in terms of timing. If I had to move to an urban area now with 2 kids, I’d likely be house poor. [/quote]
